Any comments/suggestions are welcome

Why do you want to remove em?

EAmon

different look

burstaneurysm

I'm not sure what they'd look like without em. They can be baked.
225 degrees for 10 minutes should do it.

EAmon

cool, i thought i saw one somewhere without e but i dont remember

Yea, the only risk is baking the LEDs to the point where they don't work, but if you're pulling them, shouldn't matter.

BTW, if you're going to do this, do a writeup. I'd love to see the guts of those halos. I wanna swap the LEDs with some superfluxes.

EAmon

will do!

EAmon

Ian, u think i could bake em at a leser temp for a bit longer to maybe not ruin the LEDs

jct

your LEDS will be baked if you do

You could try it. PM burxbox. His sonars are colormatched, so he had to remove the lens at some point.

im thinking mabye just getting a heat gun

I did it w/my sonars.
Heat gun & 2 screwdrivers work wonders.
the halos are connected via 2 screws, and are easy to take out.
underneath the halos is finished, so the look good.
I painted mine from chrome to black for ____s and giggles.

buy any chance u take apart the projector itself?

burstaneurysm

I can get you a writeup for that...

I'm gonna do mine soon. You can grind down that little hump on the cutoff plate so its dead level.

EAmon

yeah when i do mine i plan to do that too

Took mine apart last night and what a bunch of crap. My projectors are all charred and coroded on the inside. Time for some new headlights I guess.
